(After Coming Home)

"Sure you plan the pranks, but you never do them!" Sirius exclaimed for the fiftieth time. He was right to. Last year Remus had come up with the ideas but had never done them himself. He had a rule. 'Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.' Sure, it was fun to do the pranks, but it didn't seem complete with out Remus. Remus, to Sirius was becoming one of them, the normal people.

Remus smiled at Sirius as his friend shook his head in disappointment. Maybe he had been to boring last year. What if their was a way that he could pull a prank without breaking the rule. Just for the fun of it. It wouldn't hurt them, if would just make them mad. He could do this. He could prove to Sirius and his brother ht at he could be a trickster.

"I'll do it." Remus nodded to Sirius.

"Do What?" James's eyes widened at his brother.

"You just wait and see." Remus muttered as he walked out of the dorm.

An hour later Remus was standing in front of a mirror in the dorm. It was about supper time and he was ready. He smiled as he looked down at the eggs he was holding in his hands. In a second they were smashed on top of his head. This was going to be fun!

Sirius looked at James, "I wonder what your bro is up to. He has always followed that copper or whatever rule. What would make this time different?"

As he said this though, his friend appeared. People were turning to stare as Remus, with egg yoke and everything, came into the hall. He walked calmly and just smiled and waved at the marauders.

"What is my brother doing?" James whispered in awe.

Remus walked up to the girls side of the Gryffindor table and stopped in front of Lily. The one who he secretly loved. The one he wanted to notice him and said, "Do unto others as you would have them do to you." He smiled and promptly smashed three eggs on Lily's head. She gasped and them smiled evilly, "You are going to get it Remus!"

All of the Hogwarts students laughed as Lily and Remus ran out of the hall. Just as Remus had hoped.

"Well then, I guess he can be a trickster!" Sirius laughed. "We've got another companion for our next adventure James."

James nodded as he finished his meal. Oh, the possibilities.
